Receiver-Centered Robot-to-Human Handover with Grasp-Aware Object Orientation
Federico Biagi, Dario Onfiani, Simone Silenzi +1
Collaborative robots are increasingly sharing workspaces with human operators, making tool handover a frequent and safety-critical micro-interaction. However, traditional static ha…

Adaptive vs. Static Robot-to-Human Handover: A Study on Orientation and Approach Direction
Federico Biagi, Dario Onfiani, Simone Silenzi +2
Robot-to-human handovers often rely on static, open-loop strategies (or, at best, approaches that adapt only the position), which generally do not consider how the object will be g…

Lan-grasp: Using Large Language Models for Semantic Object Grasping and Placement
Reihaneh Mirjalili, Michael Krawez, Yannik Blei +3
In this paper, we propose Lan-grasp, a novel approach towards more appropriate semantic grasping and placing. We leverage foundation models to equip the robot with a semantic under…
